A Bulawayo couple who were set to wed left their families
in a quandary after they fled to South Africa. The bride Sisasenkosi Sulu and
groom Mandlenkosi Maphosa had been rumbled after conniving to steal groceries
worth $ 2000 from Choppies.

Sisa was arrested before being remanded out of custody for the
theft. After posting bail, she escaped to South Africa following her partner
Maphosa who had managed to flee from the scene where they were caught loading
groceries.

B Metro reports that their wedding went ahead without them,
with a 13-year-old boy and a 21-year-old young women being roped in as
substitutes.

“Some of the relatives did not know that Maphosa and Sisa
were fugitives. Therefore they were totally shocked when they saw a young
couple walking down the aisle to get married.

“They made wedding vows and all, except for signing the
marriage certificate,’’ said MthabisiMoyo, one of the relatives.

‘‘It was not fun at all, because after spending a lot of
money on outfits and presents, it was just matope (child’s play),” said Nothabo
Moyo, another relative of the couple.
